Proceeds benefit our animals
Yes, the Shelter is now the beneficiary of a wonderful lemonade stand. Thanks to Carrie Jazwiecki of Head, Heart and Hand who donated her “World’s Best Lemonade” stand, supplies and secret recipe to Stafford Animal Shelter, Isabel, Simone, Seabring and Colin Davis for volunteering to do fresh lemon-flavored outreach for Stafford Animal Shelter and 2nd Street Bistro for donating lemons. Look for the stand at the Livingston Farmer’s Market on Wednesdays in August to see the adoptable pets of the week, upcoming events and to get your lemonade fix. Thanks everyone who has made this tasty venture so successful. Read the story in the Livingston Enterprise!

During July, Truex Furniture & Appliance will donate 10% of all sales $499 and over to Stafford Animal Shelter. This could add up to hundreds of much needed dollars for homeless animals. But that’s not why you should make that purchase at Truex in July. The benefits are bigger than that.
Buying local keeps your dollars circulating in the community. When you make a purchase at a chain 80 cents of every dollar leaves the community immediately. Local purchases improve our community’s struggling economy by sustaining jobs, making it possible for those employees to spend their wages in town, creating a tax base that supports local infrastructure and services, and a larger percentage of local purchases go to local charities that serve the community.
